OVERVIEW On the prestigious Sedbergh Road, this semi detached Victorian villa has been owned by the same family for three generations - now looking for new custodians, the property is an excellent family home with six bedrooms and three reception spaces. Period features have been retained throughout the property and there is real potential to create a stylish forever home. The lounge to the rear of the property is particularly impressive with double doors leading to the garden and view towards open countryside. All the bedrooms are doubles and one has an adjoining dressing room. The first floor bathroom has been updated in recent years and has a four piece suite plus there is an additional WC to the same floor. Fantastic storage has been retained in the cellar and the property also boasts both parking and a garden. Some of the windows are double glazed, whilst still retaining their charm, and there is gas central heating.
